The Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulations Act, Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes, mandates the establishment and implementation of comprehensive planning programs to guide and control future development. The Act directs local governments to "preserve and enhance present advantages; encourage the most appropriate use of land, water, and resources, consistent with the public interest; overcome present handicaps; and deal effectively with the future problems that may result from the use and development of land within their jurisdictions.
